WATCH: Texans RB Dameon Pierce rushes for a touchdown against the Cowboys
#Cowboys' Mike McCarthy talked up (12/8/22) that #Texans RB Dameon Pierce:
"He's dynamic, the way he breaks tackles. I think the biggest thing for us not to fluff up the importance of what he means to him but just really the focus that we have."pic.twitter.com/MPDi2sSDWC

The Dallas Cowboys knew Dameon Pierce was virtually all the Houston Texans had on offense, but they still couldn’t stop him.
On a third-and-goal with 5:36 to go in the first quarter, quarterback Jeff Driskel handed off to Pierce, who rushed for a 1-yard touchdown Sunday afternoon at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
The rushing touchdown was Pierce’ first since Oct. 30 when the Texans played the Tennessee Titans in a 17-10 loss at NRG Stadium.
The Texans tied the game 7-7. Houston managed to score after picking up a muffed punt by Cowboys returner KaVontae Turpin.
